據ICIS網站1月19日消息 韓國生產商樂金化學正在建設一座2萬噸/年的塑料回收廠,該廠將利用高溫蒸汽從塑料廢料中生產石油。
該公司在1月18日的一份聲明中稱,該工廠將于今年在忠清省唐津開工,預計將于2024年第一季度完工。
樂金化學正與英國Mura科技公司合作建造新的回收工廠。
該韓國生產商是Mura的投資者,也是唐津工廠專有超臨界熱解技術的許可持有者。
超臨界熱解是一種化學回收技術,利用高溫高壓蒸汽將混合的塑料流轉化為化石替代油和化學品。
據樂金化學稱,新設施產生的約80%的塑料廢物可以轉化為可再生石油,以取代化石燃料。
該公司表示,剩余的20%的副產品氣體也可以再用作能源。
該公司表示:“一旦回收設施在2024年第一季度全面投入運營,樂金化學計劃審查進一步的擴建項目。”
據樂金化學稱,全球化學品回收市場預計將以超過17%的年增長率(CAGR)增長,從2020年的70萬噸增長到2030年的330萬噸,其中包括可從塑料廢物中提取的熱解油。

S Korea’s LG Chem to build new hydrothermal plastic recycling plant
South Korean producer LG Chem is building a 20,000 tonne/year plastic recycling plant which will produce oil from plastic waste using high-temperature steam.
Construction of the plant will begin this year at Dangjin in Chungcheong province, and is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2024, the company said in a statement on 18 January.
LG Chem is collaborating with UK-based Mura Technology for the new recycling plant.
The Korean producer is an investor in Mura and a licensee of its proprietary supercritical pyrolysis technology for the Dangjin plant.
Supercritical pyrolysis is a chemical recycling technology that converts mixed plastic streams into fossil-replacement oils and chemicals using steam at high temperature and pressure beyond a critical point.
Around 80% of the plastic waste from the new facility can be converted into renewable oils that can replace fossil fuels, according to LG Chem.
The remaining 20% of by-product gases can also be re-used as an energy source, it said.
“once the recycle facility goes into full operation by the first quarter of 2024, LG Chem plans to review additional expansions,” the company said.
The global chemical recycling market is expected to grow at an annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 17% from 700,000 tonnes in 2020 to 3.3m tonnes by 2030 in terms of pyrolysis oil that can be extracted from plastic wastes, according to LG Chem.
